He stated that the equipment is starting to rust at Station 1 and that the doors at Station 2 are rotting because ventilation is not adequate. He asked if anyone had a solution for this problem. Pres. Burke stated that he Would discuss this with the chief, and said that they would probably have to talk to Maury Rasbeck from the Village.

He pointed out the area back by the bar and soda machine where someone had been kicking a soccer ball into the wall.

Chief Schrader reported 22 alarms during the month of August. In discussing the Hart's Woods apartment fire the Chief noted the location of the panel box right inside the entrance to the building and advised the members that in many apartment buildings the location of the panel box is similar and they may want to keep this in mind. The Chief further advised the members that there are still too many telephone calls going out of Station 2. He remin everyone that the telephones are for fire department use, not per sonal use. He also stated that someone is turning the volume de- on the radio at Station 2 when they use the (telephone with the result that when we have a call any transmissions can't be heard. He advised the members that they are to keep their hands off the radios The Chief stated that he has to have a final count for the Third Batt. Clambake to be held on Sept. 26 at Penfield and that anyone interested should see him after the meeting.

He stated that the Clambake will be held at Camp Haccamo at 1 p.m. Tom Santillo stated in connection with the Chief's earlier comments on Station #2 that he had found the ignition in #347 on with the radio on channel 2 and the microphone in -8- glove box. He stated that this was a little while after the truck had gone on a call so someone had to be fooling with the truck after that. He advised everyone that if they see people messing around the trucks they should ask them to stop or else report it to an officer, since serious problems could arise as a result and the last driver of the vehicle will be the one who will start getting blamed. The Chief advised anyone who sees someone playing with the equipment, whether it is a fireman or a visitor, they should be told-to stop and the incident reported. Rick Ulinski stated that he has noticed that sometimes the doors at Station 1 are left open and he thought the last person to leave the hall should check the door. Pres. Burke agreed that there is a problem with some of the doors in that the bar catches and does not fall into place when the door closes and the door does not lock, and that people should check when they leave to make sure the door is locked. Dan Schrader stated that there is a problem at Station 2 sometimes when the trucks are leaving the hall and they are not waiting for a crew. He stated that this happens during the night as well as during the day and he thinks.'-the drivers should be told to wait an extra minute for a crew, especially for a southside call when the truck will usually get sent back anyway. He stated that many people who do not live right near the hall get left behind when the trucks leave with only one or two people. Chief Schrader stated that if this problem is going on he wants to know about it when it happens. He stated that if there is a problem with certain individuals doing this sort of thing he should be told about it when it happens and then something can be done. Dan advised the Chief that he had names -9- and specifics if the Chief wanted them and they would discuss them after the meeting.

Paul Gizzi told the members that we should be thinking about whether we are going to have the parade again next year since the work should be getting under way soon if we are. He suggested that rather than bringing the matter up on the floor at the October meeting, he thought it would be a good idea if the Advisory Board got together with last year's parade committee chairpeople to discuss the matter and then come back at the November meeting for discussion on the floor. Pres. Burke agreed that this would be helpful and asked that anyone who worked on a parade committee who would like to be present at the next Advisory Board meeting let him know.

It was stated that after examining the types of expenditures made by the Fire Police, that if they would submit a budget just like any other committee, it might be possible to save money by putting some of their requested items into the Chiefs budgets which are submitted to the Village.
